319: Taotie Domain
"How could this be?"
As Fang Bai's aura vanished, everyone stood stunned.
Had the battle ended just like that?
Did Fang Bai lose?
The Sea King and Murong Hai's gazes fell into the distance; they could clearly see the battlefield, but they had also witnessed the scene of Fang Bai being absorbed by Ye Gaoyuan, causing them to frown deeply.
"Something's not right."
The Sea King said in a low voice.
Murong Hai nodded. "It's indeed not right. If that kid died this easily, that would be strange."
During his time interacting with Fang Bai, he had gained some understanding of him. This kid was full of weirdness; he wouldn't fall so easily.
Of course, their strength allowed them to believe this, but it wasn't necessarily the same for others.
Their faces were filled with extreme worry.
"Damn it! Old Bai isn't finished just like that, is he?"
Qi Tian grumbled, but his eyes were filled with immense worry.
Su Su said with a solemn expression, "Believe in him; he won't let us down!"
Xiao Yuan said earnestly, "Brother Bai won't die!"
While everyone was waiting expectantly, above the clouds, Ancestor Pei and Kuermei also stopped their exchange, quietly watching the scene below.
With their strength, they could naturally see things on a deeper level.
Kuermei said slowly, "Ye Gaoyuan has the help of the Gluttonous God's Power. That young man cannot win against him."
Ancestor Pei said indifferently, "Being too confident isn't a good thing. You've underestimated him too much."
Kuermei glanced at him and said, "That you value him so highly is somewhat surprising to this old man."
"Hehe."
Ancestor Pei sneered. "If you can't see his brilliance, it means your vision is mediocre. This life of yours is as good as over."
Kuermei shook his head. "That's not necessarily true. This old man has prepared for so many years just to wait for the emergence of the perfect experimental subject. As long as I can pierce through its mysteries and take another step forward, it won't be difficult at all."
Ancestor Pei raised an eyebrow. "Then I'm truly sorry, but you won't have the chance!"
"Hmm?"
Kuermei's eyes narrowed. He suddenly sensed something and abruptly looked in one direction.
Not far away, a figure walked over slowly, holding a severed head in his hand.
Su Yunsheng!
The human race's youngest Ninth-Rank!
And the head in his hand belonged exactly to that Melted Fox!
A Ninth-Rank Fuser!
Kuermei's eyes narrowed, his tone somewhat disbelieving. "You've truly surprised this old man."
The Melted Fox was created by him, so he naturally knew how strong it was. Although it couldn't be compared to other Ninth-Ranks, Su Yunsheng, who was also newly entered into the Ninth-Rank, shouldn't have been able to kill it in theory.
Now, the Melted Fox had actually lost so quickly?
One must know that before fighting the Melted Fox, Su Yunsheng had also fought a Sea Demon God and killed it. That battle must have been a massive drain on him!
Yet he actually had enough strength left to slay the Melted Fox!
It was terrifying to think about!
The opponent was likely about to break through to the Ninth Stage Mid-Phase!
Su Yunsheng calmly threw the Melted Fox's head in front of Kuermei and said indifferently, "A thing that's neither human nor ghost—is this all the strength it has? It seems your Gene Fusion Technology is only so-so!"
Kuermei tried his best to remain calm and said slowly, "The emergence of this technology was actually a success because this old man fused the world's first Ninth-Rank Pseudo-human. If not for the pressure and interference from you all, I could still mass-produce them!"
Mass-producing the Ninth-Rank!
This indeed sounded like a horrifying thing.
Even if the strength of a Ninth-Rank Pseudo-human wasn't equal to a Ninth-Rank Expert of the same level, it still far surpassed the Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm, making it a Pseudo Ninth-Rank. If such experts could be mass-produced, to be honest, the Demon Race would be of no concern!
Su Yunsheng said indifferently, "You won't have the chance. I say so."
Kuermei smiled. "You've fought two Ninth-Rank Experts in a row. Do you still have strength left to deal with this old man?"
Su Yunsheng pulled out a small porcelain bottle, pouring contents into his palm as he said, "I'm just playing support. Two against one, you don't have a single chance of winning."
He stuffed five or six pills directly into his mouth.
Feeling the nearly dried-up sea within his body burst with life again, Su Yunsheng couldn't help but marvel, "The things that kid gives are truly treasures! To think they can even restore the energy of a Ninth-Rank Expert."
Hearing this, Kuermei's eyes narrowed as he looked at Su Yunsheng in disbelief. "You actually possess such medicine?"
Su Yunsheng grinned. "Come, come, come, old man. Let me play with you!"
Kuermei's eyes flickered, then he snorted coldly, and his Ninth-Rank aura overflowed once again.
However, in the next second, his figure began to turn illusory.
Su Yunsheng sneered. "A grand Ninth-Rank actually wants to run away? What an embarrassing thing!"
Boom!
A muffled sound rang out, and the nearly transparent Kuermei suddenly solidified once more.
To the side, Ancestor Pei said indifferently, "If I let you escape, this intervention would have been in vain!"
Kuermei's face looked rather grim. "Why must you fight to the death? Even if you can kill me, you will have to pay a heavy price!"
Su Yunsheng said coldly, "As long as we can get rid of a scourge like you, what does it matter if we get a little hurt?"
At worst, couldn't he just go back and get reimbursed by Old Man Wan?
Su Yunsheng had clearly set his sights on Old Man Wan's Treasury.
Kuermei snorted. "Then today, someone must fall!"
"Stop your yapping. It'll definitely be you!"
Su Yunsheng and Ancestor Pei attacked at the same time!
Life is like a play; a while ago they were enemies, and now they had reached the point of fighting side by side.
And this time, it was truly a life-and-death struggle!
Meanwhile, in an abyss, Fang Bai's consciousness returned.
"Not dead?"
Fang Bai was somewhat surprised. After all, he had been swallowed by the power of a Demon God, yet he hadn't died.
He looked around and found the surroundings pitch black, unable to see anything. What was terrifying was that his perception was completely ineffective; he felt like a speck of dust in the universe—lonely and tiny.
Fang Bai remained calm regardless. He said indifferently, "I know you're here. Come out."
"Hehe, I didn't expect you to be so lucky as to survive."
A soft chuckle sounded, followed by a figure appearing in the area.
It was Ye Gaoyuan.
Fang Bai stared at him and asked, "Where is this?"
Ye Gaoyuan smiled. "This place is within the Gluttonous God's Domain."
Pausing, he added, "However, I only inherited a small portion of the Gluttonous God's Power. This is just a simulation of the Gluttonous God's Domain I created, possessing only one-ten-thousandth of the Gluttonous God's Power."
"Of course, it's enough to kill you."
Fang Bai sneered. "It seems you've truly become someone's lapdog."
Ye Gaoyuan laughed. "Say whatever you want. After all, history is written by the victors."
Whoever could let him reach the top was his friend!
Fang Bai nodded. "I see. So, go ahead and make your move."
Ye Gaoyuan nodded. "Then please go to your death."
As his voice fell, the surrounding dark space suddenly began to tremble!
